SCHEDULE
Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, today we will begin with a 1-hour period
for morning business. We will finish the emergency supplemental
appropriations bill during today's session. The order from last night
provides for up to three votes, including final passage, and those
votes will be stacked for a time certain late this afternoon. We also
have an agreement to consider the nomination of John Negroponte to be
Director of National Intelligence. We will debate that nomination today
and stack that vote to occur with the remaining votes on the emergency
supplemental bill.
I thank Chairman Cochran and Senator Byrd for their hard work on the
appropriations measure. That bill will go to conference next week, and
we hope that we can have a conference report available in a reasonable
period of time.
Again, we will alert Members when we have locked in the exact time of
the stacked votes later today.
I yield the floor.
